  1. PRESENTER: READ THIS FIRST take a look at the notes on this slide….

  2. > VERITAS STORAGE FOUNDATION Getting the most from your storage resources Peter McKellar VERITAS Software

  3. Game Changers • Falling Disk Prices • Open Source • Extreme Data Growth • “Mission Critical” • The Unthinkable • More Change Tiered Storage Migrations Automation Online Everything Disaster Recovery

  4. The truth about tiered storage • 80% of data is inactive • Keeping it is too expensive • Archiving it is too drastic Recommendation: Move it to another tier Traditional Solution VERITAS Solution

  5. “Our tiered storage strategy with Storage Foundation has allowed us to mix and match hardware and keep archival data on low cost storage.” Tony Catone, Philadelphia Stock Exchange Snapshots don’t have to be so expensive Traditional Snapshots VERITAS Snapshots $40K $40K $5K $5K $40K $40K $40K $40K Total Cost: $90,000 Total Cost: $160,000

  6. Free data from technology changes • Migrations are good, but… • Tape migrations are slow • NFS clogs the network • Both require extra storage Recommendation: Don’t move the data 5 Hours Tape Backup 4 Hours NFS Storage Foundation 25 Seconds Time to Migrate one 500 GB Tablespace

  7. “Using VERITAS software, we cut the number of employees dedicated to managing the SAN from 12 to 3. “And, the number of administrators maintaining the data center servers was reduced from 20 to a combined team of 12 that can manage the UNIX, Linux, and Windows environments.” Service Provider, Maryland Make the most of human resources • 60% Storage Growth • 0% Admin Growth Recommendation: Automate routine tasks

  8. “Previously, we had to take Oracle offline for 7 hours for each backup.With Storage Foundation, the database never comes offline and the backup takes 15 minutes.” Jim Meredith, IT Manager, Replacements, Ltd. Keeping data online all the time • Backups • Network path failures • Configuration changes Recommendation: Online everything • Volume and file snapshots • Multi-pathing • Online administration

  9. Hardware Investment Replication Throughput StorageFoundation $35K $50K HardwareReplication $150K Disaster recovery is within reach • Expensive. • Complex. • Application agnostic. Recommendation: Replicate the Volume • Works with any hardware • Uses existing software • Fully application aware

  10. A look Into the factory… Advanced file migration Centralized storage management Self-protecting data Technology-independent data • More extreme data growth • Scale out • Continuous data protection • The next “big thing” …Storage as a utility
